Title: Chehalis Air Fair
Post by: Bill Heher on August 02, 2009, 09:34:45 PM

 I drove up to Chehalis from my temp home at the Hillsboro Towne Place Suites / building repair shop. Brought the repaired Oriental Profile in case they needed someoneone to demonstrate basic flight and maybe " 1 point landing"! A good day- but kind of warm, hot temps were giving a few of us problems with needle setting / starting.

There was a plane in the air most of the time, so spectators who wandered over got to see either a stunt / sport flight, an Autogyro, or a combat plane over on the grass.


I got a few pics and some short video clips of the Auto-Gyro and Bill's Formation 4 flying, and his He-162 EDF. That Japanese Auto-gyro camo sure works against the backdrop of hills! The video I took is low quality, but very cool to see the Gyro slow down / taxi / jump back up and cruise by at altitude, all in 1/2 a lap. Maybe Root Beard can either coach me / or post the videos on YouTube for me.

Thanks to everyone for the hospitality- I love coming up here to the Pacific NW. It is like CL paradise!

Before I clicked on the picture with the formation flying, I actually thought those were full sized airplanes.
